My Visit To Israel

March 12, 2023 by Janet MatriccianiLeave a Comment

If my son hadn’t thought that saying “Iz olright, Iz olright” with an Israel accent and considering that … [Read more...]

Prior to our latest trip to the Bahamas, the closest I've ever come to swimming with pigs was wading with swimming pigs in the remote Tuamotu Islands in French Polynesia. So, when I was invited by EMBRACE Resort in remote Staniel Cay in the Exumas to join … [Read more...]
